Chapter 73: Ranked fourth
After waiting for another stick of incense, the steward hurriedly ran out of the Hou Mansion and said to Xu Zun and the others:
"Come in, two of you!"
Seeing that he was approved, Xu Zun smiled slightly with satisfaction and stepped into the Hou Mansion.
Grunt......
Zhao Yu swallowed his saliva, and first looked up at the towering gate of the Hou Mansion, showing a timid expression.
Then, he followed behind Xu Zun......
At the same time.
In the distance from the gate of the Hou Mansion, Wu Zhengran Lin and the others were all very surprised to see that Xu Zun and the others were really allowed to enter the Hou Mansion.
But they didn't know, what did Xu Zun say to the steward?
"Chief," asked one of his soldiers, "they're all in, so do we have to wait for them?" ”
"Tut-tut......" Ran Lin originally got up and wanted to leave, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was inappropriate, so he said to the soldier, "I'd better wait!" You go and report to our captain first, I always feel that this Tangzhou sentence is a bit unkind! ”
"Yes!" The soldiers immediately mounted their horses and returned to the camp to report the news.
Needless to say, the magnificence in the Hou Mansion is beautiful, with carved beams and painted buildings, pavilions and pavilions, always in cold winter.
But as soon as Xu Zun and Zhao Yu entered, before they had time to enjoy the beautiful scenery, their eyes were attracted by a figure who came to greet them.
This person is wearing a gossip robe, a purple and gold crown on his head, and a green floating dust in his hand, he is actually a Taoist priest!
But seeing this person's starry eyebrows and sword eyes, Dao bone fairy wind, he doesn't look very old, but his eyebrows are all white!
No way!
Xu Zun sighed in his heart, is this a white-eyed hero?
"Hahaha, Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!" The Taoist priest waved the dust, respectfully saluted Xu Zun and the two and said, "It turns out that the Tangzhou Punishment Master is here, welcome and welcome, hehehe......"
This......
Xu Zun and Zhao Yu looked at each other, how could they not have imagined that the Taoist priest who received them in the Hou Mansion was actually a Taoist?
However, no matter who he is, he is in the Hou Mansion, and he is actually polite to such a petty official as himself, and he is obviously a very well-cultivated person.
"Excuse me!" Xu Zun hurriedly returned the salute and asked, "May I ask who you are ......?"
"Oh," the Taoist priest smiled slightly, "Below is the nurse of the Hou Mansion of Changping, just because the Hou Ye and the housekeeper are out looking for the young lady, the poor Dao has no choice but to entertain him!" ”
Mr. Nursing Home?
Is it the security captain?
"Poor Dao Wei Beihui," the Taoist priest introduced himself, "I don't know what the two of you are visiting today......
"Huh!?"
Who knows, the Taoist priest just said his name, but Zhao Yu suddenly shook his head and almost knelt on the ground.
"You...... Are you Taiqing Wei Beihui? Zhao Yu asked in surprise, then hurriedly bowed down and hugged his fists, bowing to the end, "I didn't expect it to be Wei Tianshi himself, who has admired the name for a long time, and admired the name for a long time!" ”
Well?
Xu Zun searched for his memory, but did not find relevant information.
"I've heard about your heroic deeds of chivalry and righteousness and helping the needy," Zhao Yu said again and again, "I am fortunate to meet the Heavenly Master today, I am really fortunate to have three lives, and I am fortunate to have three lives!" ”
"Hey...... Young Meng Lang, not enough to mention," Wei Bei smiled back, "Adults praise falsely, I dare not be ashamed, hehe......"
"Anyway, if you can see the true face of the Heavenly Master, it will be enough for me Zhao to go out and brag about it in the future!"
Zhao Yu's eyes lit up, and he was completely like a fan seeing an idol.
"Two adults," Wei Bei asked back, "just now you asked someone to pass the word, I don't know what you mean?" I listen to the meaning of adults, there seems to be a mystery in these words! ”
As soon as Wei Beihui said this, the conversation suddenly entered the main topic.
Xu Zun said: "That's the case, I suspect that there is another reason for Miss's disappearance, so I took the liberty to disturb the mansion, and asked the Heavenly Master to bother, can you allow me to investigate in the mansion?" ”
"Oh...... That's the case," Wei Bei pondered for a moment and said, "I don't know, how do you want to investigate?" ”
"I need to go and see where Miss lives on weekdays," Xu Zun said bluntly, "I also need to find all the servants and maid guards who are familiar with Miss for questioning." ”
"This ......," Wei Beihui replied, "Poor Dao can't be the master, let Poor Dao inform Madame."
"Madame is eager to save her daughter, and I will definitely cooperate with you! But......" he said instead, "whether it's the Hou Ye himself, or the fast catchers in the city, they have already asked these people about it!" I don't know, but what new plans do adults have? ”
"Returning to the Heavenly Master," Xu Zun replied simply, "No!" ”
"This ......," Wei Beihui was surprised.
"However," Xu Zun said, "just because you don't have an idea doesn't mean you can't solve the case."
"The Heavenly Master is an understanding person, and he didn't dare to come to the Hou Mansion to make a mistake if he borrowed my courage, since he came, there must be a reason." He said bluntly, "Actually, I came this time to confirm one of my ideas, and if it can be confirmed, it will be of great help to solve the case!"
"If someone really obstructs the official's case, it happens to respond to Xu's speculation, which means that Miss's disappearance is too deep......"
"This ......," Wei Beihui looked embarrassed.
Xu Zun's words are too lethal, which means that whoever obstructs him from investigating the case will have something to do with the disappearance of the young lady, and no one can afford this crime.
"Good!" Wei Beihui nodded back and agreed, "Please come with me, I will report to Mrs. and ask her to decide ......."
After speaking, Wei Beihui led the two to the backyard, and then asked them to wait in a garden, while he went to the house to report.
"Hey, Lao Zhao," Xu Zun saw that there was no one around, and hurriedly asked, "What is the origin of this old way?" Why would the palace invite an old Taoist to be a nursing home? ”
"Oh, that's a big deal!" Zhao Yu hurriedly replied, "This person is from Taiqingmen, and since his debut, he has been a chivalrous man, fighting righteousness and squandering wealth, fighting grievances, and being very famous.
"It is said that he uses a pair of iron wolf flying claws, and his martial arts are so strong that he is almost invincible!
"Some people in the rivers and lakes once made a ranking in the entire Tangzhou, thinking that Wei Beihui's martial arts are enough to rank in the top ten masters of Tangzhou, and some people even say that he ranks fourth!"
"I'll go," Xu Zun pinched his chin and said, "Why is it so unreliable?" How can you be almost invincible and rank fourth? ”
"Ahem, it's all blindly commented by the people of the rivers and lakes," Zhao Yu said, "Not all of these masters have fought against each other, and this ranking can only be hypothesized or inferred."
"But then again, in my eyes, if you can rank fourth in Tangzhou, you are already an invincible existence!"
"Oh, what about Fire Anu?" Xu Zun was curious, "How many can she rank?" ”
"Don't make trouble, my lord," Zhao Yu covered his face, "It's that fake Qiu Yonglai, I'm afraid I won't be able to squeeze into the top ten, right?" ”
"Huh?" Xu Zun was surprised, "Is it so outrageous?" ”
Suddenly, Xu Zun had an illusion, as if he had come to a martial arts world!
He was still wondering before, since he could have a few tricks with Huo Anu, could he barely be regarded as a little master?
But now it seems that it is simply out of reach of the real master.
Just as the two were discussing, Wei Beihui had already walked out of the house and said to the two:
"Madame, please let the two adults in, come with me!"
Hearing the word, the two hurriedly walked towards the inner house.
Zhao Yu played drums as he walked, thinking in his heart that it would be good if Xu Zun and the others found clues today, but if they couldn't find anything, they wouldn't be able to explain it......
